That Kieft   
The FJ (I believe) Kieft I photgraphed in 1962 is to be seen on these
two links.
Anyone know it or its story?

Is it actually FJ? It appears to be fitted with a Buick V-8 - the
predecessor of the Rover V-8. Thought FJ was restricted to 1100 cc?

Erm, no, it wouldn't be eligible for FJ - it's a hillclimber. The
suggestion was that it was an ex-FJ chassis. Looks more like a 500cc
F3 to me - bet the driver didn't suffer a lot with constipation!
